As word of  Jayson Williams plea deal in the accidental shooting death of his chauffeur hits the news, the law is taking aim at another NBA star, Washington Wizard, Gilbert Arenas.

Inked Arenas

Unlike Williams, who’s trouble happened at home (probably after a few shots of courage and  the reckless flash of  firearm), Arenas brought his hardware to the job at DC’s Verizon Center. Gilbert, like many professional athletes, has to be nervous about his own security…I mean at only 6′4″ and 215lbs, he’s gotta be a real target for would-be muggers. Makes sense to me. And besides, I think all pro athletes have gone through the Plaxico Burress firearm training seminar.

So what’s the problem with a gun at work? Isn’t a fully armed nation the goal of the NRA? The easing of gun laws in places like Georgia, where having a gun at a bar or on the bus is totally cool, means that, thankfully, we can finally rest easy in places like the church pew because even our clergy can now be packin’ in the pulpit.

This is how you get some respect!

I noticed that Disney On Ice was also scheduled for the Verizon Center later this month.

Shouldn’t all the talent bring some heat to the arena? It’d be more fun. Who cares if Snow White takes a spill while attempting a double Salchow? Put a cap in her ass and watch her drop like this guy drops Mickey. Now that’s entertainment.

I’m also happy to see that kids are standing up for their right to bear arms at schools from Las Vegas, NV to Sacramento and Alhambra, CA, to Baltimore, MD and Milwaukee, WI. So let’s arm the teachers too. Then, of course,  the classroom will be a much safer environment. Just show the little gun slingers this NRA safety flick for kids…or bring this guy in for a safety demo. After all, we don’t just want the bad guys to be armed.

Why should he be the only guy with a gun?

Yeah, I like the idea of guns everywhere. I mean when I take my next trip (oh, and check out this nifty concealed weapon trip planner) to see my mother and her friends at the assisted living facility, I’ll make sure I thank her for helping me understand at an early age that its my RIGHT to bear arms. God forbid the government goes rogue or something…I’m gonna be prepared to fight back…even if they hit me with one of these, At least I’ll have a fighting chance to stay free damn it because I’ll have a pistol, just like our founding fathers planned it.

So thanks Gilbert…You’re an American Role Model.
